It's not just United, it's more that United are the only ones we're paying attention to.
I couldn't give a monkey's about Arsenal or Chelsea's negotiations, although I do notice Falcao hasn't arrived at Chelsea yet.

Guys, just chill lol You're all so impatient.
Soton have already said they'll let him go, and they won't keep leaking every bit of the transfer as it goes on. For now all that has officially come out is what Koeman said.
Talks are ongoing, they could be as simple as agreeing a pay structure.
Schneiderlin has agreed terms already with United, now officially he wouldn't be able to do that if we hadn't had permission to talk to him.
Think back to the Shaw deal last year, it actually took a while to sort even when it was clear all along he was coming.
The papers need articles to shift their rags, quite often no news = good news.
Looking back at the Andy Mitten post a page or so back it says a few niggles to sort out with the contract, the chap I speak to (who isn't Mitten btw, or anyone even remotely linked with him) said pretty much the same.
I'm also not sure if we did bid £25m considering at the weekend (or just prior to) the papers were reporting that Soton has agreed Morgan could go for £24m. If we've bid over their "reserve" (for want of a better word!) then why would they not accept it.
Suspect a deal is almost in place and it's payment structure to sort.
Not worried about this deal at all, he will be ours (oh yes! - Waynes World
)

Oh, of course, ye. How could I forget? Silly me.
According to Mitten it was £25M. Who the feck knows anymore though.
But Chelsea don't really need to make signings - they are already comfortably the best side in the Premier League. A striker to replace Drogba (bit part player) and thats about it in terms of need.

Are you trying to rustle jimmies are do you legit know somebody in the, erhh, know?
According to Sky, they said we didn't meet the valuation of Schneiderlin, which was under 25M. Apparently Southampton value him at 25M. Knowing us, we probably put in a 21.4M bid.

Look back through my recent posts lol I know a chap in a useful position.
No WUM if that's what your asking
I want this signing as much as you lot.
This thread is just going round in circles now.
It's fairly f'kin obvious that it's gonna go through soon so there's no point arguing semantics about the reported bids.
Like some have speculated it's probably due to the structure of the fee more than anything.

Cool, cool.
Anyone wanna predict the fee? I'm going with £26.4m.
Yeah as long as his asking price didn't all of a sudden "increase" the moment we enquires/bid. God knows the entire footballing world is trying to mint us. Except PSV of course.
It's like the Clyne fee with Pool. When we were linked to him the sums mentioned were £20-25m, now Pool seems to be getting him for half that
(yeah I know, being linked doesn't mean we were actually ever interested at all).
Hope we announce this deal soon. Excited!

Well Schneiderlin is the kind of player we are crying out for and I would much rather see him come in than Turan. I like Turan, his end product could be better but he's technically brilliant and works extremely hard. Signing them both would be great business but I hope we are making Schneiderlin a priority. If he ended up at Arsenal, I would be gutted. I don't invest too much time in this transfer lark - I steer well clear of any Ramos talk - but I have found myself caught up in the Schneiderlin speculation. Mainly because he would be such a perfect fit and I really rate the guy.
Yeah, it certainly looks that way alright. I think if it's his choice, he will be Chelsea bound. There's talk of Felipe Luis heading back the other direction which would make sense. Chelsea obviously have a relatively good relationship with Atletico having gotten both Costa and Luis last summer.
What do you mean exactly?
Yeah, cause transfers work like that.
Classic transfer thread before an announcement.
Who knows maybe Woody and Soton guys are emailing each other and negotiating like that.
I imagine Woody sending an email : "So Soton guys, whats new, would you sell us Morgan?"
Soton guys: "Sure, send us 25 mil and we're ok. We can have a cup of coffee after that."
Maybe most of transfers work like that. If not, wouldnt it be wonderful if they did work like that.

Too high expectations based on last year.
I would expect it to go more like this:
MU: We'd like Morgan, how much do you want?
SH: Not for sale.
MU: How about £23M
SH: Not for sale.
MU: OK, here's £25M
SH: We'll think about it.
Liverpool had to buy free agents mostly. Other than Milner I doubt If they needed to spend time coaxing Gomez ings bogdan and Clyne to join especially when no one higher was gonna bid on them (except ings and Spurs maybe)
For a transfer that's been literally the most well known secret arsenal took A long time to get cech. I mean the guy is world class he quite literally refused to move anywhere else fee and wages were decent yet it took a long time for what seemed a straightforward move
I hope we get this one sorted. The latest reports are a little worrying.
It's a matter of time, Schneiderlin is exactly the type of player van Gaal is looking for since Strootman got a setback and we seem to be the only ones interested.
I can't see this not happening.
I can't see this not happening.
nothing more than a bargaining to squeeze out the last few millions. just refer to the case how did they keep reject the bids for clyne
I think this one is a done deal. Southampton prepared to sell at a price, and we'll pay it. No other clubs in the picture either, so this isn't exactly going to be an auction. I'm guessing 25m - 28m.
Isn't today meant to be the day?
Schneidaylin?

Why are SSN and BBC so misleading when it comes to us?
Maybe we leak misleading information.
We've always been slow in the transfer market.
I'm getting a muppet fever. It's not good.
I hope today is the day.

It's also my feeling. There's always the impression that United never changed their working methods to make sure 1) that the player signs, and 2) that the transfer(s) is(are) wrapped up quickly.

We've not "always been slow". Over the years we sealed trasnfers for players like Stam, RVN or Chicharito before the season ended. De Gea, Young and Jones's deals were done eatly in the summer of 2011. Nani, Anderson and Hargreaves - ditto in 2007. Park and VDS in 2005. Kagawa in 2012. Herrera and Shaw were done late June last year.
Yes, there were also deals done later. That's the way it goes sometimes. It's not just up to us. Real Madrid are the biggest cheque-spreading club around, and they've had some late, late deals - Zidane, Ronaldo (the Brazilian), Modric, Bale.

They won't be if others strengthen and they stand still. Just because you were the best side last season does not mean you will be the following season, especially if you don't strengthen enough.
Evidence Fergie's last season and Moyes' first (and last!)
So no replies for almost 2 hours. Beginning to wonder if this saga is dead in the water
Regardless of who everyone else buys I'd still see Chelsea as by far the strongest. The more you buy, the bigger the settling in period needed....and they have Mourinho.
Or its a calm before the storm.
We got our pants pulled down by fecking Southampton.
Looking forward to hearing about him completing his medical today.
There's just no way this won't happen unless we simply don't want him. My Soton supporting mate said he read that Soton want United to hurry up and buy him so they can focus on replacements before the likes of Clasie, Gueye, Praet or Krychowiak get snapped up.
He's already conceded that Schneiderlin is leaving. I'm guessing most Soton fans have.

If Schneiderlin can be the player Carrick has been for us over the years, then £29million would be a bargain for him in this current climate IMO.
Looking back, a lot of folks were outraged at us spending £18million for Carrick, but in hindsight it was an absolute bargain.
